Why is it that when people talk about writing, narrative consistency and cultural setting that somehow it MUST mean that the speaker is right wing in their politics? Why can't it be just as simple as someone who doesn't care about politics wanting the fictional worlds to make sense?
Take Baldur's Gate 1. There is the Cursed Girdle of Masuclinity/Femininity. Magically changing a person's gender when they put it on. In such a magic rich environment it makes sense that there would be something like this there. Or Cyberpunk 2077 coming out soon, where gender and your body type is all but meaningless because technology has advanced so much. But bring up examples where the writing doesn't make much sense for the characters, setting or story, or the developers make it clear that they are putting something in to appeal to represent an audience base without figuring out how it makes sense for that particular setting and suddenly you're right wing?
I don't get it that mind set.
